The iPod Touch was released by Apple in 2005. It has a large touch screen display like the iPhone but uses a touch interface instead of a virtual click wheel. It was the first iPod to have wireless capabilities, allowing users to browse the web, watch YouTube videos, and download music from the iTunes store over WiFi. The iPod Touch combined features users wanted like wireless connectivity and a bigger screen size in a sleek design.

3. • The first ipod touch was released 2005 by
Apple so users have access to the internet
from their ipod and they can also have access
to the itunes store

4. • The basic iPod design is pretty sleek, and
making it bigger to accommodate a larger
screen would take away a lot of its charm. So
many Apple aficionados speculated that the
next iPod would be all screen. It would have a
virtual Click Wheel, and it would play
widescreen videos on a horizontal display.

5. • The theorists got it partly right. The newest
iPod design is the iPod touch. A display screen
covers most of the front surface of the iPod
touch, making it resemble an iPhone. But the
iPod touch doesn't have a virtual Click Wheel
that appears on the screen. Instead, it uses
the same multi-touch interface that the
iPhone uses. You navigate through
music, videos and other files using your
fingers and the touch-sensitive screen.

6. • -The iPod touch also has a few other
features that iPod enthusiasts had
hoped to see on standard iPod
models. Some users hoped for a
wirelessly enabled iPod so they could
synch their music or share files with
friends over a Bluetooth or WiFi
connection.

7. • The iPod touch is the first iPod to
have wireless capability, although it
doesn't use it to synch with a
computer or friends' iPods.
Instead, you can use it to browse the
Web, watch YouTube videos or
download music from a WiFi-specific
iTunes Music Store.

9. Hard to understand concepts
• When Apple released the iPod video in
2005, people started wondering what the next
version of the iPod would look like. It seemed
obvious that the media player needed a bigger
screen. While a 2.5-inch LCD was fine for
browsing through lists of artists and songs, it
was far too small for watching
videos, especially in a widescreen format.
